Day 1: Chest, Triceps & Calves
Chest: • Seat Bench Press: 4 sets (20) 10 for warm up (35/35/40/40) 8/8/6/6 • DB Incline Bench Press: 4 sets (20/20/20/20) 8/8/8/8 assisted • Flat Dumbell Bench Press: 4 sets (30/30/30/30) 8/8/8/7 assisted Surprised myself at the amount of weight I was able to shift. I maybe should make more jumps in weight sooner than I think I am ready for. As you can see I was assisted on some of these excercises buit thats mainly to keep my form ( stops the arms from drifting too wide ), when I know its my last I lower the weight as slow as possible. Triceps: • Skull Crushers: 3 sets (25/25/25) 8/8/8 • Cable Push-downs: 3 sets (30/30/30) 10/10/8 • Close grip Barbell press: (35/35/35) Unfortunately I could not add any more weight to my cable push-downs, or my form went out the window as my reps increased. I feel I respond better and can isolate my tricept more when at this weight anyways. I have dropped the dips for the Close grip Barbell press and enjoyed it last night. Could feel my triceps working alot better than when I do dips. Calves: • Standing 45° Calf Raises: 3 sets (60/60/60) 20/18/15 • Seated Calf Raises: 3 sets (50/50/50) 15/15/15 Overall I am happy with the weight increases and my form on the excercises. AAS REPORT Looking forward to thursdays shot. On the up side I checked my weight this morning and It was up from 152 to 155. So I could now be holding a little water although I cannot see it. Maybe Im growing? We'll see if it hangs about. Surfer

Day 2: Legs, Shoulders & Traps
Legs: • Seated Leg Press: (100) warm up (130/130/140/150) 10/10/10/10 • Leg Curls: (65/65/70/70) 10/10/10/8 • Leg Extension: (65/65/70/70) 10/10/10/8 The seated leg press is all the weight on the machine so Im chuffed to bits at finally reaching this goal. I had tred it late last year and there was alot of crunching from my left knee.... None now so Im dead chuffed. Shoulders: • Seated Dumbbell Press: (26/26/26/26) 8/7/6/7 • Stand SLat Dbell Raises: (10/10/10) 10/10/8/8 Assisted on last two sets from the 5th rep. • Stand Front Bbelll raises: (20/20/20) 10/10/10 Only assisted on the Stand SLat Dbell Raises to make sure that I was not dropping the weight but in control the whole time. Happy with the 26kg shoulder press. Traps: • Dumbbell Shrugs: (30/30/30) 12/12/10 • Upright rows: No time tonight Good pump on the Traps despite not having time to fit in my upright rows. personally Im not a big fan of upright rows but apart from more shrugs what can you do for Traps? Diet was poor today, did'nt consume nearly enough calories. Need to order whey real soon. AAS REPORT Pin tomorrow morning. The 155lbs has now returned to 152lbs. Must have been water retention. I did'nt consume my usual three litres and think that I probably retained some water from the previous day setting the scales off. Ah well. I just have to keep pinning, stuffing the food down and lifting. Surfer

This is an issue.
I am changing gyms in two months due to the fact that the gym has decided to remove the smiths machine for its members and their is no weight heavy enough to squat. Its real dumb. So I questioned why and they told me that they still have it but its now kept in a separate area but only teams are allowed to use it. There is too little weight and very few decent machines. So that was enough for me. Im looking forward to changing. Surfer

Day 3: Back, Biceps & Abs
Back: • Seat rows: (60) Warm up (65/70/75/80) 10/10/8/8 • Lat Pull-downs: (55/60/65/65) 10/10/9/9 • Pullovers: (40/40/40/45) 10/10/10/9 • Dumbbell Rows: (30/30/30/30) 10/10/10/14 My strength is definitely starting to go up. (See AAS Report) Biceps: • Dumbbell Curls: (12.5/12.5/12.5) 10/10/10 • Hammer Curls: (10/10/10) 10/10/10 Abs: • Machine Crunch’s: (60/65/65) 15/15/20 AAS Report I had noticed today that the broad of my back had started to feel a little greasy, and I even had one spot around my chin, but this is more likely to be from shaving. My strength is definitely starting to increase and I am finding that it’s a period of adjustment again where I have to try and find what weight to start with and when I am maxing out with each set when I want to. Kind of like beginning all over again. Thursday's shot was a piece of cake even though it was slightly sore piercing the skin. Monday will begin week four of my cycle. I was up 3lbs, from 152.2 to 155.4, this morning and this time I had consumed the usual 3 litres of water over the course of the previous day so I would be surprised if it was retention. I seem to not having any water retention (thankfully) but then again I am keeping sodium levels right down and water normal, i.e. 3 litres. Will drop into the journal tomorrow and report back on what has happened weight wise. I am noticing that since being on cycle my left side of my body will achieve a pump quicker than the right, I have thought that maybe it is something to do it the location of the heart and the flow of the blood being quicker in reaching these muscles than on the right, any thoughts?

Day 1: Chest, Triceps & Calves
Chest: • Seat Bench Press: 4 sets (20) 10 for warm up (35/40/40/40) 8/8/6/6 Second set is up 5kg, last rep was assisted on the final set. • DB Incline Bench Press: 4 sets (20/20/20/20) 8/8/8/8 Assisted on last rep of last set. • Flat Dumbbell Bench Press: 4 sets (30/30/30/30) 8/8/6/6 Assisted on last rep of last set. I was pissed off at myself last night for not being able to match last week’s performance on the chest exercises. That ended up making me feel frustrated the rest of the night. When I see it on the screen it’s not as bad as I first thought. Triceps: • Skull Crushers: 3 sets (25/25/25) 10/10/10 Up from 8 reps to 10 reps from last week. • Close grip Barbell press: (35/35/35) 10/10/10 I could do with more weight on this one but again that’s one of the main reasons why I am changing gyms. • Cable Push-downs: 3 sets (30/30/30) 10/9/10 Just couldn’t make ten on the second set! Calves: • Standing 45° Calf Raises: 3 sets (65/70/75) Not sure how many I did of these but I remember the intense burning feeling. So I did do enough. Usually close to 20. AAS REPORT As you can see my weight is up. It has been here for a while now and I am hoping to see more increases over the next few weeks. Pinning easy now so I have decided to order some 1" pins for some thigh shots. I’m looking forward to these as I have been cramping during the left glute shot just because of the twisting involved. I also want to open up a new injection site as well as avoid the build up of scar tissue. Also I am a little paranoid when I go for a shower after the gym as there is little 'spot' like marks of redness 9no more than a pin prick) obviously from injecting but I don’t think anybody notices, my brother definitely hasn’t. With any luck it just looks like I have a spotty arse! (I dont by the way) Surfer
